GAC LNG was originally formed in 2016 and offers a range of services for the shipping sector, including charterers’ vessel operations, as well as technical and commercial information support services.
The company was primarily formed to provide the technical services required for safe, compliant and efficient port calls by gas carriers.
In addition, the Chevron Shipping Company (CSC) recently awarded a global three-year ship agency contract for both crude and LNG vessels to the GAC Group.
